XAMPP can connect via localhost:8080 but not via IP address / 127.0.0.1

Question

I'm trying to get my localhost XAMPP to broadcast over my IP address. localhost works fine but no luck getting it through to my IP.

I have HTTP TCP Port Forwarding on my router set to 80-8080.

How can I do this ? Any ideas?

You should try debugging via telnet. And your IP address is in same subnet ? — Raptor, Jul 25 '16 at 03:27

I found some people suffering with the same problem. Some of them solved it by simply running the following command at windows CMD ( Be sure to run it as administrator ).

netsh http add iplisten 127.0.0.1

Good luck and keep me informed if it didn't work for you.

My IP port 80 works now... :) but it's not connecting to 8080. 127.0.0.1:8080 and localhost:8080 both work. – Michael Alexander Nagy Jul 25 '16 at 03:19

Figured it out... the HTTP Port Forward IP had to be the same IP as my server (connected device). = )
